I've been researching flat Earth for years, and I say "yes." There is an excellent chance that all of us have been lied to for our entire lives about the vary ground we walk on. I am not smart, but there is much physical evidence that would suggest that we have been lied to for centuries about the shape of the Earth, and reality in general.
You must do your own research and stop believing what you were taught at an age where you still believed in Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy.

@ElwoodBlues I congratulate you on the time and effort of finding all of that nonsense and putting it together in a post. However, you did not prove a thing did you?
@ElwoodBlues It is not my job to define words for you man. If you do not know the definition of the word "prove" go back to school. The same place where they indoctrinated you into the sick and twisted belief that water sticks to balls at.
I want to see someone spin a ball at 1,000 mph, pour a glass of water on the 1,000 mph spinning ball and have the water stick to the ball. Showing me that experiment would be an excellent start. I'm getting fed up with globetards. You all need to regain your common sense.
@TBIman Oh, I took a LOT of math, so I know exactly what constitutes a proof. And I majored in physics, so I know that nothing in science constitutes actual proof. All science can ever do is lower the probability of alternative explanations to vanishingly low levels. Seems you are unaware that "proof" doesn't exist in science, only in math, and even there only with caveats.
You want spinning balls? You've noticed the moon is a ball, right? You can tell by the way the curve of the shadow of the sun changes night after night that it's spherical. You've noticed the sun is a ball, right? I've looked at the setting sun thru a telescope with filters, and watched sunspots traverse across it.
Venus is a ball. Mars is a ball. Jupiter and Saturn and Neptune are balls. Galileo built the world's first telescope and looked at Jupiter night after night. He noticed small balls around the ball of Jupiter. Gradually he realized they were moons of Jupiter orbiting the central planet. And that's what made Galileo realize the moon orbits the Earth.
Dude, every large body in space is a ball. Why would the Earth be different?
As for spinning 1000 MPH while water sticks, well, dude, you need a really large ball! The moon doesn't weigh enough for an atmosphere to stick, but Mars & Venus have atmospheres; water will stick to them.
@ElwoodBlues No. I do not know that the moon is a ball. Besides the moon has absolutely nothing to do with the shape of the Earth. Try to stay focused on what we are talking about. The EARTH.
@TBIman Actually, you were asking about water sticking to a ball, which means you were asking about gravity. I'm sorry if the answers about gravity burst your bubble, so to speak. The moon is a ball, the shape and details of the shadows seen from here on Earth prove it.
Venus is also a ball, Mars is a ball, Jupiter and Saturn and Neptune are balls. Gravity shapes every large enough mass into a ball. That's how the universe works.
No, I have observations of the night sky, and I have Newton's equations of motion - solved to better than one part in a billion - predicting eclipses, alignments, slingshotting spacecraft, etc.
All you have is your cloak of ignorance in which you isolate yourself from anything and everything that might challenge your preconceptions. SAD!!
@ElwoodBlues What is it that you would like me to say El? There is nothing more to be said if you cannot admit that a body of water cannot curve and stick to spinning objects in space.
@TBIman Bodies of water, and gas, do curve and stick to spinning objects in space but they need to be rather LARGE bodies. Where did you dream up "the EARTH we live on is a pear-shaped rocket?"
@ElwoodBlues Dude (are you a dude?) this interaction that we have had has not been beneficial in the least for me. So I choose to close up shop. I wish you well in living on your spinning ball of water. Peace,
